Virginia Confederate Disability Application Records

I happened across this neat resource recently - a searchable datbase of applications made to the State of Virginia by disabled Confederate soldiers. In nearly every file I checked there were descriptions of service records and wounds received. Those of you with Virginia ancestors might want to check this out!

@lupaglupa this is a very helpful website for researching Virginia ancestors. It has helped me and my better half fill in gaps about some of our ancestors.

Thanks for posting this. I knew my 3 g.gftr. was wounded near end of the war. Did not know any details. Thanks again
